Magic Mushroom Band – Pictures In My Mind: Anthology 1984-1994
10th October 2016Ozric Tentacles contemporaries Magic Mushroom Band are set to release an annotated compilation of material with 31 tracks exploring a decade of some of the best space & psychedelic music since the head days of Hawkwind.
What’s great about this compilation is there is a shed load of previously unreleased live material, rare compilation tracks, alternate versions and recordings from the band’s two Aftermath albums (Bomshamkar! and Eyes Of The Angel) that have never been on CD before, the 31 track compilation also includes recordings taken from the five albums the band recorded for Magick Eye Records who celebrate their 25th anniversary in 2016.
This double disc set opens with the classic Magick Eye & is a perfect example of what you’re getting on both discs. From there on it just gets better & better.
This is over 2 hours of proper space rock. All re-mastered from the archives & the booklet has a comprehensive overview of the band along with many color & black & white pictures.
Grab your blackout curtains & illuminate the room with a lava lamp & experience the Magic Mushroom Bands hedonistic, technical & psychedelic recordings.
Score 7.5/10 & an essential purchase.
For fans of Pink Floyd
